As conservative voices find an audiences on the internet, YouTube will roll out a plan to ensure controversial videos that do not violate their TOS can still be silenced.

They will do this by burying them where they cannot be found, thumbed-up, commented upon, suggested or advertised on.

If you try searching for them, you will find a list of "approved" videos that will provide progressive education.

The system will utilize the assistance of 15 leftist NGOs to provide guidance on what constitutes "supremacist" content.

It's a brave new world folks!

Any conservative speech will be labeled “hate speech.” E.T. Williams “The Doctor of Common Sense” is already having problems with censorship. YouTube needs a good competitor.

“Controversial” = conservative.

I sure would like to get a look at what YT calls “standards” with regard to hate speech and violent extremism.

Mob rule. There is so much wrong with this. It is the antithesis of free speech. What will be censored? Pamela Geller? Brent Bozell? Geert Wilder?

The past few months I've noticed that Google's search engine has deliberately deteriorated. Many searches no longer return the target of the search but the exact opposite. Search for global warming topics and you often end up with a list of websites attacking "deniers", instead of what you were looking for.

#1:   "system will utilize the assistance of 15 leftist NGOs"

George Soros owns or funds 90% of the NGOs. NGO is a synonym leftist front group.

And by controversial, they mean any video that advocates for whites, heterosexuals, Christians, or males.

18 posts in seven hours.

A major change to YouTube that will silence conservative voices generates no interest on Free Republic.

Sad.
